City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

I suspect there was Pannick at the BBC legal team offices…

I know a lot on here slagging the BBC off but Radio 4 PM is pretty solid on news reporting. Its the only News programme I listen to.

The PL amateurs get their comeuppance, the red cartel know the writing’s on the wall and the shitty little clubs who endorsed the tyranny of the majority deserve their never ending lives grubbing around in the shadows

Fuck Brentford
Fuck Bournemouth
Fuck Fulham
Fuck Wolves
Fuck West Ham

Good luck to Chelsea Newcastle and Everton

We cannot rely on Spurs for anything, but have we now got 7 clubs to stop anymore of the cartel shit? 1 City 2 Newcastle 3 Villa 4 Chelsea 5 Soton 6 ? 7 ? Was really surprised at Fulham

This is what I have never understood, why doesn't Mansour loan us the money we need as per Arsenal/United?View attachment 134249

Perhaps he was bright enough to know what was coming.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Nobody is, mate. We all make judgement calls, and we all sometimes get them wrong. Even me!

Don't do this to us , where will we look to ?

City had no problem with the original APT rules. They claimed the later amendments were unlawful and have been proved correct

Minay has made a fool of himself. Why does he not just read the Judges’ summary. It is very clear about the result of the tribunal.

Yep. They also recruited good managers in Mourinho OGS Ten Haag Moyes and van gaal. Meanwhile in other news the Easter bunny is alive and well and having dinner with Santa and the tooth fairies

They also think their the biggest club in the world just because they sell the club badge onto any old shit like Japanese bogroll..

I look forward to seeing Newcastle announce a £1bn sponsorship deal from a Saudi Chainsaw manufacturer and a Riyadh-based stone supplier.

Won't happen. Also, won't be the end of the world if Newcastle win a CL place at the expense of Arsenal, Liverpool or United. Having 3-4 teams competing for the PL will make it even more interesting.

Besides, money alone don't buy titles. Otherwise, United, Chelsea and Arsenal would have won more trophies in recent years. United have the most expensive squad in the world. Newcastle will need a lot more than money to win the PL/CL.

"owner interest free loans"

Isn't that THE VERY definition of financial doping?

Yep. If you go and get a loan from a bank you pay interest on it. So these clubs go and get a loan from one of their shareholders - a related party - and don’t pay interest on it. So they are not paying fair market value for the loan. Which makes a mockery of the whole related party nonsense they’re trying to level at City

Didn’t know you had two accounts GDM?

GDM is a drunk small claims solicitor. I'm just a drunk.

So if I get this straight the Red vested interests, aka previous cartel owners, came after us for inflated sponsorship deals which were found to be ok but then the beast of unintended consequences reared their head and said before we go what about the murky way you finance your club and these free loans, the true cost if which should be hitting your p and l like a normal company. Let’s count that now.

And oops a daisy there goes Arsenal’s free ride. Beware what you wish for. Now let’s get the 115 done. And hope they go after leveraged debt funding model too.
